Large blank space under posts only in Chrome.

Hi Guys,

I'm currently running the latest 5.0 BETA on my site http://www.customcolourgolf.com and I'm having a slight issue which is that when viewing posts in Chrome there is a large white space below the text in any post. This does not appear in other browsers that I've tried. Any ideas how I could resolve it would be greatly appreciated. It's also pretty bad in most versions of Internet Explorer but I put that down to IE's behaviour more than anything.

Thanks,
Adam

I should also point out that it's also happening in Safari - the gap is even larger in it. Thanks.

Wow - I see it but am not sure what is causing it. I will get together with Steve on this one to see if we can track down a possible cause.

Actually - would you be willing to make a small template edit to see if we can resolve this?

It looks like there are errors in Chrome and FF that may need to be looked into.

Chrome is not finding http://www.customcolourgolf.co...../script.js

and there are Facebook connection errors in FF.

Error: uncaught exception: Error: Permission denied for <http://www.facebook.com>; to get property Proxy.InstallTrigger

There is also a plugin loading a Google Library that may be causing a problem.

Yes - absolutely - I'll make any edits required! I'm under pressure to sort this out 🙁

Yes I see there are script errors on your site and these really should be dealt with (see Brandon's post above) - if nothing else it can make the environment unpredictable.

But try this - and I have no idea if this will help as I can not actually replicate your issue at all on any of our test sites.

  1. Open up the forum admin > theme > editor
  2. Load up the spTopicView.php template from the list
  3. Scroll down to the comment '# Column 2 of the post row'
  4. Below that is a call to the function sp_ColumnStart() - you are going to change this a little.

Basically try removing the height parameter at the end so the line of code looks like this:

sp_ColumnStart('tagClass=spPostSection spRight&width=84%');

See if that helps at all.

I am interrogating your site with Firebug and that '&height=100%' still seems to be in the code. ?
